Notifications not working
I installed and started using the free version of Service desk plus on 4/7/2011 and about 3 weeks ago the notifications and mail fetching stopped working. I have not changed any settings except to update the mail server settings email passwords. I have verified that the ports 110 and 25 are both open and working on our exchange server. Also I upgraded to build 8011 hoping to solve this issue but it did not. Does the free version not include this? I am the only IT person in my company. Version
servicedesk plus 7605 migrate to another host (windows)
Hi, I'm having a problem when I try to migrate servicedeskplus to another host. I've made the backup using backUpData.bat, and I've instaled the same version(7605) on the other host and made the restoreData.bat. The problem is that I cannot open the servicedesk home page. Besides that when I try to upgrade the build product, the database gets corrupt. Anyone with the same problem ? thanks in advance, Miguel

body of email not being received since moving to exchange 2010
using the latest version/build of SDP The body of many of the emails to SDP is missing from our tickets since our mail service has been migrated to exchange 2010. We connect via IMAP and POP is not an option as it is not supported in our organization. I understand this is a known issue and wondering if there is an update as to when this will be addressed as it is making our SDP VERY difficult to use as our users have to be asked to email their requests a second time to personal email accounts of
High Memory Utilzation and many instances of Java.exe process
I'm using ServiceDesk 7.5 (build 7504), and I have some problems with two process (java.exe and cmd.exe). This Process are running por more of 30 times with a bit of memory for each. These processes consume all my RAM. There is one picture: How I can solve this issue? Regards, Pablo.
two different computers acting as one....?
I have two sets of three computers each which seem to have some sort of odd relationship within SDP. I'm not sure exactly how to explain it but I'll give an example. Step 1) Scan Computer USERNAME-XP-01 successfully and see accurate computer and information in SDP. Step 2) Edit USERNAME-XP-01 to provide Barcode, Site, User, Department. Step 3) Scan Computer USERNAME-XP-02 successfully however it retains customization information provided in step 2 and now USERNAME-XP-01 is no longer listed as an
Time Spent Reports
I previously requested this in an email--here we go again... We need to see time spent reports that are more comprehensive e.g., REPORT BY TECHNICIAN - Report needs to show TOTAL time spent on requests (request work logs and associated tasks). We need to see both columns in the report. The report should list out all of the requests that the technician has time posted to (in either the request work log or the associated tasks). REPORT BY REQUEST - Report should list out each report with Technicians

Incident Templates will not assign to Group when submitted by a Requester
Your Version : 8.0.0 Build 8007 After patching to 8007, When a requester uses a Service Catalog or Incident template (even default) The request does not go to the Group assigned to the template. (Normally hidden from Requester view) But if a Technician or an SDAdmin creates a request using a template, it goes to the correct Group set up in the template. I did some testing and configured the Group field inside the template to Requester can Set, Requester can View. The field is present in the
How to downgrade / uninstall Service Packs
With each passing day I keep finding more and more problems with Service Desk Plus Service Pack 8011. From template problems to duplicate groups to now having technicians just vanish from the system, I've hit my breaking point. I want to have instructions provided on how to roll out this buggy release so that I can provide my end users with the stable platform they deserve. And I am asking this in public so that others who are suffering from the same problems can find some relief.
browser problem
some times SDP forntend refuses to modify the request. we are able to change the values but it isn't saved.. for example when trying to assign asset you can select it normally but changes doesn't take effect. this is random problem (some users face it from IE and others from firefox) so how can i trace and fix such issue. as it causes lots of problems to our customers
Replies not showing up in request
If a technician replies to a requester from the ticket that conversation shows up in the ticket. If a requester replies to the email sent from the ticket, the conversation doesn't show up in the ticket. The technician doesn't receive an email saying there's a reply even though "E-mail technician when a request is appended by reply" enabled under Notificaiton Rules. I found some posts saying the ##$RequestId## must be in the subject for ServiceDesk to update the ticket, and it is correct in all

SDP -$SolutionLink provides an invalid link
Hi, I've noticed that in SDP when a notification is sent to technician when a Solution has been approved, the $SolutionLink contains the http://hostname part twice in a row, which renders the link unusable. (ex. http://mycomputer/http:/mycomputer/addsolution.do?solid=8) Please refer to the screenshot attached for more info.
PMs showing up unassigned
Ever since I upgraded from SDP 8000 to 8011 I've been having issues with our preventative maintenance tasks. Almost all are showing up in the Requests section as unassigned even though the PM settings show it's assigned to a technician. It seems the only time a PM shows up as assigned to the correct person is if the technician is an SDAdmin. I've tried creating new PMs and they behave the same as the others. I can't find anything in the release notes to indicate this behavior is on purpose, so
Problem with assigning a technician in business rule
I have a business rule which must assign a technician to all of incoming requests. After update to build 8011 this business rule doesn't assign a technician. Is this a known issue?
8011 Performance?
Hi All, I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing a downgrade in performance when going from 8008 to 8011. 8008 was very quick to respond to clicks in the user interface. 8011 is inconsistent - sometimes it's 'normal' but othertimes it's noticeably slower. The application is running on a Windows box, running as a VM under VMWare ESX 4.1. The ESX hosts are lightly loaded and the VM itself is likewise lightly loaded. It's just the SDP app that's sluggish. Any thoughts? Thanks, James
Probe cannot scan
I have tried scanning with Probe, both windows domain and network scan. The workstations are found but all of them have error saying that the connection parameters are wrong. I have double and tripple checked them and am 100% sure they are correct. Computer management, WMI control on the PCs shows the error that the RPC server is unavailable. I suppose this has something to do with it. How do I switch on the RPC Server?
You are not authorized to view this page.
We have been evaluating ServiceDesk+ for a week or so and once we decided to buy it I went ahead and customized it for our help desk. When I finally received my license and applied it I was no longer able to access any parts of the site. All users have the same problems as well including the default administrator. I keep getting "You are not authorized to view this page.". This doesn't really make sense to me since I only applied the license and nothing more. I would grab the logs but I can't

Replying to a Conversation
Recently, we have been receiving E-mails but when I try to reply to them, only the sender is included in the To Field and all other people who had been included on the mail are stripped. This is making it harder for us to keep everybody in the loop when updating tickets. Before the 8.0 update, we were able to hit reply and everybody who had been on the original mail would be included (like Reply All). Could this please be fixed as it is causing us problems as we have to hunt down the original E-mail
Java.exe pegging the CPU
This manifest itself as a 500 error with a Java Heap size error. I followed instructions to change the configuration of the Heap Size and raised it from 128/256 (Start/Max) to 256/768. The Heap Size error went away and now we can just not close a log. It spins its wheels and eventually stops loading and stays on the log with no closure. During this, Java.exe on the server is pegging the processor to 95 to 100%. I have restarted the server as well as the service with no affect. Thanks
wrong Task link in mail notification
Hello, i'am using a mail notification to warn technicien each time a task is assigned to them. But the link provided in the mail is not good. I mean the text of for the link is good, but the link itself is not correct (i get both IP and the alias of the server). See exemple below : http://10.24.17.99:8081/tasks/CUDTask.jsp?TASKID=17&MODE=Edit I tried to change the alias, but no way. I guess i made a mistake somewhere, but i can't figure out where.. Can you help me? Thanks, Mathieu
Changing database from Mysql to Sql2005
I have just updated successfully from 7509 to 7514 to 7600 to 7602. All updates ran without a problem and works perfectly on MYSQL. Took a full backup of Mysql database, stopped the SD service, changed the database to SQL2005 database server, then let it create the SQL database called "servicedesk". Started SD so that it creates all the tables in the servicedesk database, then stopped SD. Ran the restoredata script file selected the 7602 full backup and restored it to the new SQL2005 database "servicedesk".
Error with request link
Hi, I have a business rule set up that emails technicians when an incident is requested that has emergency priority. The RequestLink in the rule doesn't work. When you click it from an email I get this: http://icthelpdesk:8080/http:/icthelpdesk:8080/WorkOrder.do?woMode=viewWO&woID=3952 as you can see the first part is replicated which is why its not working. Is there any way I can get rid of this? Thanks Martin
preventive maintenance 31days
I can create a recurrent task. I can set it to monthly and then choose the month/day/hour. So lets say i check "every month" and choose "on" Date: 31 Does the system know February only has 28 days? And does it "create" the task the 28th of February ? It might be a stupid question but i did not found an explanation in the guide.

Duplicate Technician Group names after upgrade
We recently upgraded from ServiceDesk Plus 8.0.0 Build 8005 to 8011 as well as moved the application and data to a new server. We have encountered a problem where users will access a Request and attempt to assign the request using the available toolbar. When attempting to choose group from the “Assign Group and Technician” form, the “Choose Group” dropdown menu is showing multiple duplicate entries. For example: Choose Group: Incoming Email Tickets IT Secure

Deleted fields from default incident template still appear when editing requests
I seem to have a quirk inside of SDP that I don't understand. Our organization had me modify our default Incident Template and several fields were removed as we don't use them. One of those fields is "Impact Details". After removing it we found no other place for us to enable or use this field when we go through all of our configuration settings. Yet if we pick any ticket from our request tab, then click on Edit Request we see the Impact Details box. Either we missed a configuration setting or we
Asset Scanning Issue
Dear Manage Engine, I have installed the Asset Explorer version 5504 as a remote server and did the domain scan, in which most of the PC's turned out with RPC and DCOM errors, but when I manually scanned as an individual PC i am able to scan it successfully.(I did this for around 80 PC's because i did not have any other option) What does it mean, the Windows Domain Scan fails and Individual scan works. Sometimes it scans at the first run and the second run it comes up with Errors. While uploading

Closing the DOS prompt shuts down ServiceDesk
Is it normal behaviour to start ServiceDesk Plus by executing run.bat from the comman line and then having to keep that user logged on to the server and keep the DOS prompt open. If I close the DOS prompt, ServiceDesk shuts down. Please tell me how to start SDP without having to keep the user logged on and DOS prompt open. SDP version we're using is 7.6.0 Build 7611.
